Annual Energy Cost of Common Central Heating

The figures provided in the table represent approximate annual costs. These estimates are based on an average pre-2005 house in a Melbourne climate, maintaining a heating temperature of 20°C. The calculations assume an electricity tariff of 22.8 cents per kilowatt-hour (peak) and 16.54 cents per kilowatt-hour (off-peak).

Natural gas tariffs are derived from the standing offer of a major gas retailer, utilizing a typical “declining block” structure. This structure accounts for varying rates based on the amount of gas consumed during each billing period, covering gas usage for heating, water heating, and cooking purposes.

Reverse cycle air conditioning works by using a refrigeration cycle to transfer heat from one place to another, allowing it to both cool and heat a space. Here’s a breakdown of how it functions in each mode:
Cooling Mode:
1. Evaporator (Indoor Unit):
  1. Warm indoor air is drawn into the indoor unit.
  2. The refrigerant inside the evaporator coil absorbs heat from the air, cooling it down.
  3. The cooled air is then blown back into the room.
2. Compressor (Outdoor Unit):
  1. The refrigerant, now warm and vaporized, travels to the outdoor unit.
  2. The compressor pressurizes the refrigerant, increasing its temperature and pressure.
3. Condenser (Outdoor Unit):
  1. The high-pressure, high-temperature refrigerant releases its heat to the outside air through the condenser coil.
  2. The refrigerant cools down and condenses back into a liquid.
4. Expansion Valve:
  1. The liquid refrigerant passes through an expansion valve, which reduces its pressure and temperature.
  2. The cycle repeats as the refrigerant returns to the indoor unit.
Heating Mode:
1. Evaporator (Outdoor Unit):
  1. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the outside air, even in cold conditions, and evaporates into a gas.
  2. The refrigerant is then transported to the compressor.
2. Compressor (Outdoor Unit):
  1. The compressor pressurizes the refrigerant gas, raising its temperature.
3. Condenser (Indoor Unit)
  1. The hot, high-pressure refrigerant releases its heat inside the home through the condenser coil.
  2. This heat is then blown into the room, warming it up.
4. Expansion Valve:
  1. The refrigerant cools down and condenses back into a liquid as it passes through the expansion valve.
  2. The cycle repeats as the refrigerant returns to the outdoor unit.
